Steel Tip Darts

[JaxNative68]

Does anyone know of a good bar in this town where you can throw steel tip darts?  It seems like every dart board I have seen in this city are all plastic tip.  What gives?

[Sportmotor]

YES!
actually there is a place off blanding that will let you, near the mall..the name of it escapes me atm tho

Box Seats, maybe?

[JeffreyS]

Is it farther out than the mall maybe roadhouse?

London Bridge used to have a few.

A few years ago a friend who was involved in a very successful dart league in Athens, Georgia and I did a diligent search for bars with real darts and never found anything.

Wish one of our downtown/Springfield/Five Points clubs would take advantage of that opportunity....

I was also surprised when I moved to Jax and was unable to find a steel tip league. Soft tip darts are crap.

^^ maybe we need to present a league to a few bars in town and see if we can get them to hang a few boards.  Even ask if they are willing sponsor a team, by giving them ownership of the board for a few hours a week and reduced drinks for league players during those hours.

Out of curiosity, how many logging onto this web site would be interested?

[02roadking]

I play both, so yeah, I would probably be interested, as long as it was not too far outside of DT.

All of the bars in my previous leagues benefited from guaranteed people coming in every Mon and Tues night to drink for a few hours. If it's close to DT, I'm in.

If I was an insurance man I would probably not like the mixture of alcohol and sharp pointy things flying around.

[Sportmotor]

Its more becuase when you are drunk and you miss horribly you zip a sharp pointy thing into the dry wall, and eventually you have a ton of holes in a wall

If your missing that bad, you shouldn't be throwing.

When I originally started this thread, I was't as clear as I should have been.  I work downtown and live at the beach.  It is those two areas and in between that I was looking for a place to throw.  Unless it was for league play, then I would be willing to roam the Jax Metro area.
